Founded 170 years ago and currently headquartered in New York, Pfizer Inc. (PFE) is a global biopharmaceutical powerhouse with a presence in over 125 countries. At its core, Pfizer researches, develops, manufactures and markets medicines and vaccines across a wide spectrum: from oncology to immunology, internal medicine, rare diseases, and preventive vaccines.
With a market capitalization of roughly $146 billion, Pfizer slots squarely into the “large-cap” league, a category typically defined as companies worth about $10 billion or more. And while the post-pandemic drop in COVID-19 product demand has challenged the company, the pharmaceutical giant is powering ahead with a refreshed lineup of innovative medicines and vaccines.
